Shows distressed, hand stitched paper layers, using the ATC frame that I cut in half & lace in the layers.... 

I primed the chipboard with white gesso, then applied a thick coat of clear crackle onto most of the pieces. I let the crackle dry naturally, it takes a few hours to dry. Once the crackle dried I painted the pieces with the Silk-Oyster, & glued on Prills onto some of the pieces.....In this Cluster I used DA Swirly Vine, Seagrass,Foliage, Mini Birdcage, 49 and Market Flowers, died lace, netting & scissors....
